Health: How to reverse memory loss?

CAUSES

Alzheimer’s & Dementia Causes, Risk Factors | Research … alz.org“…While scientists know Alzheimer’s disease involves progressive brain cell failure, the reason cells fail isn’t clear. Like other chronic conditions, experts believe that Alzheimer’s develops as a complex result of multiple factors rather than any one overriding cause. Both age and genetics have been identified as risk factors, but many questions still remain. The discovery of additional risk factors will deepen our understanding of why Alzheimer’s develops in some people and not others…

Alzheimer’s Disease from drweil.com“…The exact cause of Alzheimer’s disease isn’t yet clear. However, scientists know that the brains of people with the condition contain abnormal clumps and knots of brain cells, called plaques and tangles. These plaques and tangles are made up of proteins that may be involved in the neuron (nerve cell) death that occurs in Alzheimer’s disease. Researchers also believe that the inflammation observed in the brains of some people with the disease may play a central role.

Who is likely to develop Alzheimer’s disease?
Alzheimer’s appears be influenced by a combination of genetic, environmental, and other factors. Some major factors that appear to increase the risk of Alzheimer’s disease include:…..

May 22, 2014 articles.mercola.com“…His book, Grain Brain, reveals how and why sugars and carbohydrates destroy your brain, and how to eat for neurological health. He notes Mayo Clinic research that reveals diets rich in carbohydrates are associated with an 89 percent increased risk for dementia while high-fat diets are associated with a 44 percent reduced risk. This combination of very little sugar and carbs, along with higher amounts of healthful fats is KEY for addressing not only Alzheimer’s, but diabetes and heart disease as well. ..

Sal: I was diagnosed borderline “diabetic” 8 years ago. I thought to myself, I’m too young! I decided to change my lifestyle and researched on what I’ve been doing wrong. I slowly cut down my pop intake (more for dental reasons) and carbs. I slowly cut down on sweets and feel (look) younger now!

TREATMENT

Program to Reverse Memory Loss Targets Lifestyle October 7, 2014 alzheimers.net“…The study involved an intense 36 point program which targeted lifestyle choices. The program included diet changes, brain stimulation and vitamins. While each program was personalized according the needs of each individual participant, sample components of the program included:

Alzheimer’s is a frightening disease not only for those who suffer from the progressive memory loss, but also their loved ones. But the University of California Los Angeles says a new way of treating Alzheimer’s is showing promise for reversing some of that memory loss. The treatment combines western medicine with eastern philosophy. Elizabeth Lee reports from Los Angeles on the new program.

http://www.democracynow.org – Could a pair of headphones change the lives of millions of Americans suffering from Alzheimers and dementia? “Alive Inside: A Story of Music & Memory,” a new documentary at the Sundance Film Festival, follows a social worker named Dan Cohen who has launched a campaign to bring iPods and music therapy to nursing homes. One of the central characters he works with is a 90-something Alzheimer’s patient named Henry Dryer, who was featured in a video posted online that went viral in 2012, with nearly 10 million views. The clip begins with video of Dryer looking largely unresponsive to the outside world. Then he was given a pair of headphones to listen to Cab Calloway, his favorite artist. The music energizes him, awakens him and helps bring back old memories.

We are also joined by Michael Rossato-Bennett, the film’s director and producer….
